This car was on V3's. The 275 R888's touch the spring because of the V shape spring that comes with the V3 kits. Those springs waste a lot of inner clearance unlike traditional coilovers. This resulted in having to bolt the wheels on in place so the car did not settle front and rear as much as a car on coilovers traditionally would.

I definitely agree, especially considering that I have V3s on my E46 M3.

Interesting. Is there a way to make this wheel size/offset work with KW V3s. Or is it the tire size that's causing the issue?

looks good but the front vs. rear ride height looks off... Given the way the rear sticks out in the third pic I don't see how it won't rub under compression.

275/35/18 fronts are taller than the 295/30/18 rears. This is not a recommended setup, but it was the tire sizes we had mounted up from a previous test fitment, and we bolted them on here just to see the wheel design.

The rear of this car had a 10mm spacer stuck to it which pushed out the rears to ET15. This again is not an ideal fitment, but it allowed us to see the design on the E9X M3 chassis. At ET25 it fits a lot cleaner.
